Metropolitan City of Florence

The Metropolitan City of Florence extends across 3,514 square kilometers in central Italy, including the capital Florence and surrounding municipalities in Tuscany.

The Metropolitan City of Florence emerged from the former Province of Florence through administrative reforms, becoming officially operational on January 1, 2015.

The territory contains numerous Renaissance buildings, medieval structures, and art collections, with the capital Florence recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

The administrative region connects multiple provinces, from Bologna in the north to Siena in the south, with the Arno River valley enabling urban development.

The region includes the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci in Anchiano, while its agricultural lands produce corn, wine, and historically significant silk products.
